Broughton Anglican College is a co-educational, Preparatory to Year 12 Christian school with approximately 850[1] students. It is a multi-campus facility, located at Menangle Park near Campbelltown, New South Wales.

The College, which was founded in 1986[2] by the Reverend Canon John Darlington (the then-Rector of St Peter's Anglican Church, Campbelltown), began with the aim of providing Secondary education based on Christian principles for students progressing from St Peter's Anglican Primary School (Campbelltown). In 1997, the College added a Junior School. It now offers education for Preparatory (Pre-Kindergarten) to Year 12 students.

The College has had three Headmasters, Mr. Ron Webb (Foundation Headmaster, 1986–2007), Mr. Paul Rooney (2007–2009), and Mr. Don O'Connor (2009–present).

In 2007 the school was affected by flash floods.[3][4]
